We can see the pieces on the board.
We just don't know what date they're at what point.
Yeah.
I mean, we have what they're called class one inscribed stones.
It's an early medieval type of inscription that was found at Vindolanda
in some of the ruins of the fort, and it's the Brigo Maglos stone.
It's mostly Brigo Maglos.
Brigo Maglos is buried here.
But that's a high-status name, Brigo Maglos.
It's great chief, effectively.
He's kind of the one name we can be certain of.
There are a few other of these types of inscriptions, a couple from Maryport.
Actually, Vindolanda has another one, a stone that was used almost like as a foundation stone for another building.
So we've got a few of these names floating about just from inscription.
They're British names.
And that's a key point as well that I think takes us back to that notion of...
almost military dynasty, that the soldiers are the sons of soldiers, the grandsons of soldiers, that there's this tradition.
But that probably also applies to the local elites, that they also are probably serving terms as officers.
And so there might be a connection between the local elite and military service, being an official military leader.
It's not just the kind of common people, as it were, but also the elite.
